Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A vanitas still life by Jan Fris was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2004. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 20,315.00 (€ 30,700.44) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Jan Fris have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A still life with a stoneware jug, a glass of beer, playing cards and smokers’ requisites in January 2021 with an auction result of USD 365,400.00 (€ 301,112.48).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit A vanitas still life von Jan Fris kam im Juli 2004 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 20.315,00 (€ 30.700,44) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Jan Fris auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A still life with a stoneware jug, a glass of beer, playing cards and smokers’ requisites im Januar 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 365.400,00 (€ 301.112,48).
